Amy Pascal & Lawrence Grey Land Nir Paniry Spec ‘Princesses’

EXCLUSIVE: The spec script Princesses is closing in on a six-figure deal with Pascal Productions’ Amy Pascal and Rachel O’Connor, and Grey Matter Productions’ Lawrence Grey. Spec, which got a lot of interest around town, is written by Nir Paniry and Heidi Sherman Grey did a rewrite. The film’s premise is likened to The Avengers, with all the classic princesses as the heroines.

Paniry is repped by Paradigm, Good-Fear Management and attorney Jeff Frankel, while Sherman Grey is repped by attorney Jamie Feldman. The project started through Grey Matter’s writer’s lab, which puts scripts through a rigorous development process before they are set up, as happened with Section 6, Winter’s Knight and Infinite Horizon.
